In reply to Wellbutrin side-effects - 'ringing in the ears', posted by Wilna on March 6, 2008, at 5:25:04
Hi,
I had the same problem, except with Effexor. I went off it and the ringing went away in about two-three weeks. Then I later went back on it and then off it again and the ringing took longer to go away that time. The final time I tried it, the ringing was worse and it took almost a year for it to completely go away after I finally went off Effexor for good.
Weird, though, it didn't happen with Cymbalta (another SNRI) and it didn't happen when I was briefly on Wellbutrin.
I used a white noise machine so I could sleep at night. That was when it was most bothersome.

> Has anyone maybe experience "ringing in the ears" as a side effect of Wellbutrin. My doctor told me stop taking it immediately, but I would love to know whether these buzzing sounds in my head (more to the right ear) will ever go away again.
